Music in the Parks.

We endorse most heartily the States
II owe for having opcn-air concerts In our
public parks during The summer. They
would certainly furnish much enjoyment
for tie great masses who are Obliged to
stsy IN she city during the hot months.
There Is no reason why Richmond should
not support large flrst'class military
bard. 1t would cnlivcn the place ana ada
another 90 us many attractions. Look NJ
the little city Of Roanoke. that has sprung
Up in the Southwest as IL by magic. one
Of the 0rst things done 10y her enterprlSins
and go.ahcad citizens was TO organize
large band OF music; and 1t cannot De DC
MED that this has in it, way been one on
the factors of her success. Yes, let Rich
moud, with her large music-loying popu'
lation, boast Of fine band.
We trust that the effort to get up open-ar
concerts for our three parks during th'S
summer will be successful. II Is proposed
TO do this by subscription. Let our puShc
spirited citizens come forward and sub
scribe the rcquired amount, $1,000. Mr.
BEIRNE, Of the State, has generously started
the subscription with 800.
